Glengoyne Balba\u00edna 1L (RRP \u00a358.99) by contrast has first fill European Oak Oloroso sherry casks at its heart and is reminiscent of luxurious honey, with raisins, red apples and cloves.<\/p>\n Launching in January 2019 are Glengoyne Pedro X\u00edm\u00e9nez Cask Finish and Glengoyne 28 Year Old.

The ultra-premium and very scarce Glengoyne 28 Year Old 70cl (RRP \u00a3420) is complex, with a heart of rich fruit and elegant spice, following over a quarter century in the finest first fill sherry casks \u2013 a dram with exceptional heritage.<\/p>\n Known as the unhurried malt, Glengoyne Highland Single Malt Scotch whisky is crafted to a 200 year old recipe and process which uses the slowest stills in Scotland and is famously one of the only Scottish whiskies to be distilled from completely unpeated malted barley. \u201cWe are delighted that Glengoyne is returning to UK airports, as we know there have been frequent requests from travellers and malt enthusiasts as they have been passing through UK airports,\u201d says Ian Macleod Distillers\u2019 Global Travel Retail Director, William Ovens.<\/p>\n \u201cOur range gives consumers the unique opportunity to explore whiskies which have been matured in a range of high quality sherry oak casks \u2013 a process which is rooted in the DNA of Glengoyne.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Ian Macleod Distillers, one of the world\u2019s top 10 whisky suppliers, is introducing its exclusive travel retail range for its premium Highland Single Malt Scotch […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":36824,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2597,1,7099,7097],"tags":[39,274,2377,6962,6961,105,612,103,273],"class_list":["post-36823","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-best-selling-brands-in-duty-free","category-latest-news","category-spirits","category-wines-spirits","tag-dutyfree","tag-gatwick","tag-glasgow-airport","tag-glengoyne-balbaina","tag-glengoyne-cuartillo","tag-heathrow","tag-single-malt","tag-whisky","tag-world-duty-free"],"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36823","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=36823"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36823\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/36824"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=36823"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=36823"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=36823"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
